SUBJECT:
PLANT PERFORMANCE REVIEW (PPR) - FERMI 2 l
{
Dear Mr. Gipson:
t
{
On March 18,1997, NRC staff completed the semiannual Plant Performance Review (PPR)
}
of Fermi Nuclear Station Unit 2. The staff conducts these reviews for all operating nuclear j
power plants to develop an integrated understanding of safety performance. The results are used by regional management to facilitate planning and aUocation of inspection resources. The PPR for Fermi 2 involved the participation of all Region 111 technical
.. divisions es well as responsible NRR staff, in evaluating inspection results and safety
{
performance information for the period of October 1996 through March 1997. PPRs provide NRC management with a current summary of licensee performance and serve as j
inputs to the NRC Systematic Assessment of Licensee Performance (SALP) and senior management meeting (SMM) reviews.
The PPR revealed that perforrnance improvement in the Operations and Engineering h
functional areas was slow during this period. In addition, this PPR review revealed a decline in performance in the Maintenance functionel area. This declining trend is primarily
}
due to personnel errors and work control arrors.
r i
This letter advises you of our planned inspection sifort resulting from the Fermi 2 PPR review. The information is provided to enable appropriate consideration of the resource
(
.irppact on your staff, and to permit scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues to i
be resolved in advance of inspector arrival onsste. The enclosure details our inspection plan for approximately the next 6 months. The rationale or basis for each inspection L
outside the " Core" inspection program is provided so that you ere aware of the reason for
[
emphasis in these program ereas. Rosident inspections, as well as periodic inspections by l
other assigned members of our site focus group, may occur at any time in support of the i
[
Core inspection program.
